Originally released in 2014 for the Nintendo 3DS, The Lost Valley takes you on a journey to restore the missing seasons of a magical valley. After seeking shelter from a snowstorm, you awaken to find a mysterious Harvest Sprite buried in the snow. Together, you’ll embark on a mission to return all four seasons, gathering help from villagers, Harvest Sprites, the Harvest Goddess, and even the King of the Underworld!
Harvest Moon Skytree Village
Launched in 2016 for the 3DS, Skytree Village immerses you in a once-thriving oasis now on the brink of collapse. The Harvest Goddess has lost her power, and the land is dry and desolate. It’s up to you to restore the seven Skytrees to revive the Goddess and bring life back to the land.
